Description

Study of Inner Cultivation

Background The "Nei Ye" or "Nei Yeh", variously translated as "Inner Enterprise", "Inner Training", "Inner Cultivation", or "Inner Development" (and "Inward" may be substituted for "Inner" in any of the previous), is generally considered to have been written around 350-300 BC (after Confucius, but before the Dao De Jing). Its influence can be seen in many aspects of Daoism (including the Dao De Jing itself) and in traditional Chinese medicine. It is a brief work (only 1/5 as long as the Dao De Jing), written in short, often rhymed, verses. It has been preserved in the "Guanzi", a collection of diverse writings that was compiled during the third century BC. There is no name given for the author. While available for millennia, the Nei Ye has just started to receive serious scholarly attention in the last few decades. It describes how to build up and store various spiritual forces such as Qi and "essence" (there is no indication that "essence" refers to reproductive fluids, which appeared later in Chinese thought), and how to control one's heart/mind. It shows no influence of any school of Chinese religious or philosophical thought, other than using a few basic Confucian terms. It does have a few concepts in common with the work by Mencius, but as they were probably both written about the same time it is impossible to tell who influenced who (or if they were both influenced by something else). ......Buy Now (To Read More)
